According to Bitcoin.com, the Central Bank of Brazil stated at a congressional hearing that stablecoins have the attributes of payment tools and should be classified as electronic money instruments rather than general digital assets, thus falling under a stricter regulatory framework.The Brazilian Association of Crypto Economy opposed this, arguing that such classification could lead to regulatory conflicts, hinder the application of stablecoins in institutional and retail markets, and divert Brazil from international regulatory trends. Meanwhile, the Central Bank of Brazil has recently increased regulatory requirements for virtual asset service providers, which may put pressure on the operations of small and medium-sized crypto institutions.

According to the Daily Economy, the South Korean Financial Commission held its 12th regular meeting and filed lawsuits regarding two cases of market manipulation in the cryptocurrency asset market.In the first case, "whale" investors used tens of billions of Korean won to acquire about half of the global circulation of a certain cryptocurrency asset, artificially inflating the price on overseas exchanges, and then profiting from arbitrage on domestic exchanges by taking advantage of the price linkage effect between exchanges, with the losses borne by domestic investors.In the second case, the suspects targeted "Kimchi Coin" by repeatedly submitting market buy and sell orders through API channels within one second, creating a false appearance of active trading, while simultaneously posting high-priced buy orders on the web to drive up the market. After buy orders surged in, they sold off in batches to cash out.The Financial Commission warns investors to be cautious of cryptocurrencies with sudden and unjustified spikes in price and trading volume, and stated that it will strengthen the disclosure mechanism for large holders' positions and the market warning system.

According to Taiwan's Economic Daily, passive component leader Yageo has notified customers that starting from July 1, it will comprehensively increase the prices of its entire line of capacitor solutions, covering MLCC, aluminum electrolytic capacitors, tantalum capacitors, and polymer aluminum capacitors, marking the largest increase in recent years. Industry insiders pointed out that this move mainly reflects the continuous rise in global manufacturing costs due to geopolitical factors, energy, raw materials, and international freight rates. As capacitor products account for about 50% of Yageo's revenue, the market expects this round of price increases to significantly boost its revenue and profits.Driven by strong demand for AI servers and automotive electronics, Yageo's stock price hit the daily limit yesterday, reaching 1,140 New Taiwan Dollars. However, due to recent volatility in the Taiwan stock market, the market reported a significant default settlement event involving Yageo's stock last night, with a total declared amount of 38.8 million New Taiwan Dollars, marking the 15th major default settlement case accumulated in Taiwan's listed market this year.

According to Crypto in America, the U.S. Senate will recess until July 13, and the advancement of the CLARITY Act depends on the progress of behind-the-scenes coordination over the next two weeks. Staff from both parties, government officials, and industry stakeholders are working to resolve remaining differences, including reconciling text discrepancies between the Banking Committee and the Agriculture Committee, as well as reaching consensus on ethical standards and provisions to combat illegal financial activities.The bill requires the support of at least 60 senators to pass. Even if all 53 Republican votes are in favor, at least 7 Democratic senators will need to join; the support of the majority of Democrats may depend on whether the White House can agree to establish a strong ethical framework regarding issues related to Trump's cryptocurrency business. According to Reuters, since Trump's return to the White House, his cryptocurrency business has generated over $2 billion in new wealth for him.Additionally, major law enforcement groups still oppose the inclusion of provisions from the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act in the bill, arguing that it would increase the difficulty of investigating and prosecuting on-chain crimes. Remaining discrepancies in the Agriculture Committee's text include issues such as the prioritization of federal law over state law, management of conflicts of interest in exchanges, and restrictions on related-party transactions. Sources indicate that the parties have not yet reached a final agreement, and there remains uncertainty about whether the Senate vote can be completed before the August recess.

According to Bitcoin Magazine, Galaxy Research has lowered the probability of the passage of the CLARITY Act in 2026 from 60% three weeks ago to 50%, due to the increasingly tight Senate schedule, the lack of a published merged text for the bill, no scheduled votes, and no public commitment from leadership. The bill has been listed as item 423 on the legislative calendar since it passed the Senate Banking Committee on May 14 with a vote of 15-9, but no motion to advance it has been scheduled to date.The report indicates that the Senate must announce a schedule by early July to complete voting before the August recess; otherwise, it will be postponed until September, when the upcoming midterm elections will make controversial votes harder to arrange. Priority legislation such as FISA Section 702 and the NDAA occupies a significant amount of time, and Trump's veto of the housing bill further exacerbates scheduling pressures.The substantive content of the bill has not yet been fully resolved, and ethical provisions remain a core controversy, with at least two Republican senators expected to vote against it, making Democratic support essential. The report suggests that if leadership clarifies a commitment to vote in July within the next two weeks, the probability of passage will rise to 60% or higher; if there is continued lack of progress, it will be further lowered.

According to Dr. Crossroads' analysis, Robinhood's event prediction market revenue is expected to surpass its traditional cryptocurrency trading revenue as early as the second quarter of this year. Data shows that as of June 25, Robinhood has recorded approximately 12.3 billion event contract trades in the second quarter. Based on the usual 1 cent per contract revenue share, this is expected to contribute at least $123 million in single-quarter revenue, pushing the annualized revenue rate (ARR) of this business to $500 million. In comparison, due to the decline in institutional trading volume, its cryptocurrency business revenue in the second quarter is expected to fall below the first quarter's $134 million.At the same time, Robinhood's newly launched prediction market platform Rothera has surpassed 900 million contracts traded in its first week, bringing nearly 60% of potential contract trading increment to the company. Through Rothera's full-stack self-research and vertical integration, Robinhood plans to change the current fixed model where users pay 2 cents per contract (with the company and partner exchanges each receiving 1 cent), reducing the new fee rate to a minimum of 0.6 cents. This move aims to sprint into the top three in the industry through core price advantages while retaining the economic benefits of trade execution entirely within its ecosystem while passing savings on to users.

The Chief Information Security Officer of Slow Fog, 23pds, posted on the X platform that curl recently fixed 18 security vulnerabilities, involving issues such as authentication bypass, memory safety, and host verification, among which one libcurl vulnerability has existed for about 25 years. The risks are not limited to the curl command line but also widely affect applications, SDKs, containers, firmware, gateways, and CI/CD environments that rely on libcurl. It is recommended to upgrade curl/libcurl as soon as possible and check for the use of old versions of libcurl, especially paying attention to mTLS, proxy authentication, and connection reuse scenarios.

According to Cointelegraph, in the wave of declines in technology stocks, cryptocurrency-related stocks have suffered particularly severe losses, with the divergence from the broader market continuing to widen. Coinbase (COIN) and Circle (CRCL) have fallen 69% and 72% from their respective historical highs, far exceeding the 48% to 57% pullback of mainstream tech stocks like Oracle, Salesforce, Netflix, and Palantir; in contrast, the S&P 500 index has only retreated 3.5% from its recent peak.On the fundamental side, Coinbase's first-quarter performance was significantly below Wall Street expectations, with a 21% quarter-over-quarter decline in revenue and a loss of $1.49 per share, while analysts had previously expected earnings of $0.27 per share. Bitcoin fell below $60,000 this week, down more than 54% from its October peak; Ethereum also dropped to around $1,500, down about 69% from last year's high, with market sentiment continuing to deteriorate.21Shares has lowered its 2026 cryptocurrency market expectations in its mid-year outlook report, believing that the performance of digital asset prices is significantly lagging behind the industry's fundamentals. The institution pointed out that institutional adoption is still deepening, with stablecoins, asset tokenization, and prediction markets maintaining strong development momentum, but the four-year market cycle of Bitcoin remains the dominant force in price trends. The report also acknowledged previous misjudgments—"the cycle of Bitcoin is evolving, but has not yet broken," retracting its earlier assertion that the four-year cycle was outdated.Analysts believe that the deep pullback in cryptocurrency stocks reflects the overall weakness of the digital asset market, the uncertainty of legislative progress in the U.S. cryptocurrency market structure, and the compounded pressure from the potential impact of AI technology on existing business models.

According to Reuters, Nasdaq has confirmed that SpaceX (SPCX) will be included in the Nasdaq 100 Index on July 7, which may bring a wave of passive fund buying for the stock. Inclusion in the index typically boosts stock prices, as ETFs that track the performance of the relevant index need to purchase shares of newly included companies. JPMorgan expects that SpaceX's inclusion in the Nasdaq 100 Index could bring in $4.3 billion in passive fund inflows.SpaceX went public on Nasdaq on June 12. To attract more companies to list in the U.S., Nasdaq and index providers such as FTSE Russell and MSCI have previously relaxed some inclusion requirements, including profitability, days since listing, and the number of tradable shares. SpaceX has fluctuated between significant losses and small profits over the past three years, with a net loss of $4.9 billion last year.Michael Field, Chief Equity Market Strategist at Morningstar, stated, "Clearly, there is strong market demand, which is why they are quickly including it in the index." He added that many people will be satisfied with this, but some fund managers and skeptics may not agree, as Morningstar believes the stock is overvalued. Investors typically gain broader market exposure through funds that track the Nasdaq 100 Index, such as Invesco's QQQ and QQQM. Additionally, large language model companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are also expected to submit IPO applications this year or next and may seek valuations exceeding $1 trillion.However, S&P Global stated this month that it will not adjust the requirements for SpaceX to enter major indices like the S&P 500 and will consider including it in relevant indices only after at least 12 months.
